Origins got some mixed reviews this year. It appeared to be heavily into
Magic: The Gathering, which touched off a Holy War on
rec.games.trading-cards.misc and rec.games.frp.misc.

Although I'd like to go to Origins, I can only go to one of the
"biggies"
each year and GenCon is it. I've got friends that prefer GenCon for the
roleplaying (and I happen to be a big Call of Cthulhu fan), but more
importantly, my wife prefers the roleplaying at GenCon.

If I was to go to any other con, my preference would be Historicon for
its
emphasis on miniatures.
